Watch Wrestling Several female celebrities have had the opportunity to develop under Shawn Michaels’ guidance ever since he assumed creative control of “WWE NXT.” These figures include Kelani Jordan, the first-ever Women’s North American Champion, and Roxanne Perez, the NXT Women’s Champion for more than 120 days. In the meantime, female veterans like Shayna Baszler and Natalya have been given the chance to face off against rising talents like Karmen Petrovic and Lola Vice. Speaking on Booker T’s “Hall Of Fame” podcast, Michaels discussed his desire to see women’s wrestling thrive and his reasoning behind founding the Women’s North American Championship in great detail.
HBK, also known as Shawn Michaels, recently discussed his ideas for the addition of a Women’s American Championship in NXT, which would be similar to the current Men’s Championships. He emphasized the simplicity and justice of adding a women’s division to the men’s North American Championship, drawing attention to its logical symmetry.
The fact that women’s wrestling in the WWE and the industry as a whole has grown significantly and is now on par with the men’s division was highlighted by Michaels. He argued for equal opportunity for women to win awards and stated his opinion that the NXT women’s roster now has greater depth than the men’s roster.
